Publications on PFAS increased dramatically in 2025, with 2,070 publications listed in PubMed, approximately 27% of the cumulative corpus, added in one year. Growth was broad-based, spanning toxicology (256 new articles), analytical methods (i.e., sensor, 53), remediation (187), and bioremediation (57). This acceleration reflects increased regulatory attention, funding, and advances in detection and treatment. Recent studies increasingly integrate human epidemiology with mech

We send samples to the lab, wait days for LC-MS/MS results, then adjust treatment. For chemicals that move through aquifers and treatment trains every hour, this time lag is huge.
